Satoshi Tomiie Spreads the Progressive Word
Now that Sasha and Digweed's Delta Heavy tour has come to pass, you know how sonically perverse and mind expanding a progressive DJ set can be. If clever, dark mixes do it for you, then there's another force you won't want to miss. It's Satoshi Tomiie, whose 2-CD Nubreed mix album just came out and is already ranking amongst DJ culture's elite recorded mixes.
Tomeii, as the first non-British DJ to be chosen by the esteemed Global Underground crew for either a Global Underground or Nubreed mix, hits the decks around the globe with the blessing of buddies Sasha and John Digweed. In fact, Digweed respects Tomiie so much that he featured his tracks on the venerated Global Underground 019: Los Angeles release from 2001.
Tomiie was born in Japan, where he still loves to DJ and hang out, yet the producer-slash-DJ now calls New York home where he spends his time doing nothing but making, playing and promoting music. If he's not obsessing on productions in his home studio, traveling to DJ (this summer to Italy, Ibiza, Portugal and England), or running his own cool underground dance label, SAW Recordings, he ducks out to catch live sets by other DJs he admires like Danny Tenaglia and Danny Howells. About his own gigging, Tomeii explains over lunch at an elegant Los Angeles hotel, “It gets crazier every year for me, of course, but I don't have many complaints because I love what I do. It's great to see the different crowds everywhere.”
In regard to his last visit to the West Coast earlier this summer he says, “It was my second time-ever playing in Los Angeles - San Francisco and LA in the same weekend (for Spundae). When I was in San Francisco, I had breakfast with some people from the audience. They asked if I wanted to come and I was so hungry I said, ‘Why not?' They were saying that they don't really get to hear the type of stuff that I play. I thought it was more popular than that, but if they say that, than it's probably true. I'm not sure the stuff they usually listen to, but it was great to have the opportunity to bring it to them.” |
I wish I could go to IHOP with him.
